Shear building representations of seismically isolated buildings 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Seismic isolation, with its capability of reducing floor accelerations and interstory drifts simultaneously, is recognized
as an earthquake resistant design method that protects contents of a building along with the building itself. In research
studies, superstructures of seismically isolated buildings are commonly modeled as idealized shear buildings. Shear building
representation corresponds to an idealized structure where the beams are infinitely stiff in flexure and axially inextensible;
columns are axially inextensible; and rigid floors are supported on these columns. Although it is more convenient to model
and analyze a shear building, such an idealization may influence the seismic responses of seismically isolated buildings.
This study presents a comparison of the seismic performances of seismically isolated buildings with superstructures modeled
as shear buildings to those with full three dimensional superstructures. Both linear and nonlinear base isolation systems
with different isolation periods and superstructures with different number of stories are considered. 相似文献

A temporary network of 33 seismic stations was deployed in the area struck by the 6th April 2009, Mw 6.1 (Scognamiglio et?al. in Seism Res Lett 6/81, 2010), L??Aquila earthquake (central Italy), with the aim to investigate the site amplification within the Aterno river Valley. The seismograms of 18 earthquakes recorded by 14 of the 33 stations were used to evaluate the average horizontal to vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) for each site and the standard horizontal spectral ratio (SSR) between a site and a reference station. The obtained results have been compared to the geological and geophysical information in order to explain the resonance frequencies and the amplification levels with respect to surface geology of the valley. The results indicate that there is no uniform pattern of amplification, because of the complex geologic setting, as the thickness and degree of cementation of the deposits is highly variable. 相似文献

The aim of this paper is to disseminate knowledge in the seismic science community about a possible tool which is not largely
popular, despite its potential usefulness. In this paper it will be shown how satellite remotely sensed images may represent
a powerful source of information where traditional sources of information are unable to deliver it, or at least to do so timely.
Even when traditional information flow can ensure delivery, an advantage may still be found in terms of sooner availability
and smaller amount of labour required. In the case shown here a vulnerability study was made on a vast industrial area in
the gulf of Siracusa, Sicily, Italy. A series of concurrent factors made it particularly troublesome to obtain information
on the structures found in the site (tanks, pipes, chimneys, roads, ...), required to suitably carry out the study. Satellite
images were then acquired to obtain the information needed. Processing of the images was carried out relying on in-house software
formerly developed for similar information extraction issues, and integrated with new, specifically developed elements, some
pieces of information were obtained useful for seismic risk evaluation. In particular, location, footprint, elevation of significant
structures (e.g. tanks, chimneys) could be evaluated, obtaining results in a format compatible with the most widespread GIS
(Geographic Information System) standards. Such compatibility allowed a considerable savings on labour time required to lay
a GIS of the area, which is a fundamental tool for risk and vulnerability analyses. 相似文献

In this study near field strong ground motion generation of Mw 6.9 scenario events on Gemlik Bay was presented at broadband
frequency (0.5–10 Hz) ground motion at 9 stations. In the first stage of the study, focal mechanism of a small earthquake,
which was used as the Empirical Green’s Function (EGF) throughout the scenario simulation, was decided by simulating it with
a smaller magnitude event. The best waveform fitting was judged with the smallest misfit value. In the second stage, near
field ground motion simulation of scenario events was performed. Calculations were achieved by considering three different
rupture processes which have the same magnitude but different asperity locations. Fault and asperity parameters for each scenario
were determined from empirical scaling laws. It has been found that the peak ground acceleration and peak ground velocities
reach maximum values of 1,440 cm/s2 and 125 cm/s, respectively for the worst case scenario. Rupture directivity effect is observed with clear peaks at a forward
station. The design spectra for Turkish seismic design code (TSDC 2007) were either nearly or actually exceeded by the scenario earthquakes at periods lower than 0.6 s at all near field stations.
Majority of structures in the area were built to lower design spectra before the 1998 code was implemented. The strength of
many structures would have been insufficient to resist the forces that may be generated by an earthquake that is similar to
Scenario I and Scenario II in this study. 相似文献

To better define the morphotectonic elements and tectonic development of the Mid-Rivera-Transform Discordance, multibeam bathymetric, seafloor backscatter, multichannel seismic reflection and total field marine magnetic data were collected along the entire Rivera Transform west of 107°W during the BART and FAMEX campaigns of the N.O. L??Atalante conducted in 2002. These data show that, although the transform tectonized zone of the Rivera Transform west of 107°30??W is a single continuous morphologic basin, this basin consists of two distinct morphotectonic domains: an eastern domain which morphologically is a deep rhombochasm within which organized seafloor spreading has occurred, and a western ??leaky transform?? domain. These new data, in conjunction with the results of previous studies, support the idea that the Rivera-Pacific Euler pole is migrating southward towards the eastern half of the Rivera Transform, and further indicate a recent (<0.14?Ma), and most likely ongoing, clockwise reorganization of the principle transform displacement zones of the Rivera Transform west of 108°W. We propose that the Mid-Rivera-Transform Discordance owes its origin to this eastward progressing, clockwise reorganization of the transform segments that is occurring in response to recent changes in Rivera-Pacific relative plate motion. 相似文献

This paper describes the use of the Stable Point Network technique, a Persistent Scatterer Interferometry SAR technique, for
the analysis of the Portalet landslide area (Central Pyrenees, Spain). For this purpose, different SAR datasets acquired by
ERS-1, ERS-2, ENVISAT and TerraSAR-X satellites have been analysed. The use of different SAR images acquired by satellite
radar sensors operating at different microwave lengths has allowed for a comparative assessment and illustration of the advantages
and disadvantages of these satellites for landslide detection and monitoring. In the introduction, differential interferometry
and the study area are briefly described. Then the specifics of the SPN processing and the results of the different datasets
are described and compared. In Analysis of the results: the Portalet landslide area, the Portalet landslide area is introduced
and the radar displacement measurements are analysed with available geo-information data. Additionally, X-band measurements
are compared with those gathered by a ground-based SAR for a previous project. Finally, the most relevant conclusions of this
work are discussed. 相似文献

The study of the radiolarian ribbon chert is a key in determining the origins of associated Mesozoic oceanic terranes and may help to achieve a general agreement regarding the basic principles on the evolution of the Caribbean Plate. The Bermeja Complex of Puerto Rico, which contains serpentinized peridotite, altered basalt, amphibolite, and chert (Mariquita Chert Formation), is one of these crucial oceanic terranes. The radiolarian biochronology presented in this work is mainly based by correlation on the biozonations of Baumgartner et al. (1995) and O??Dogherty (1994) and indicates an early Middle Jurassic to early Late Cretaceous (late Bajocian?Cearly Callovian to late early Albian?Cearly middle Cenomanian) age. The illustrated assemblages contain about 120 species, of which one is new (Pantanellium karinae), and belonging to about 50 genera. A review of the previous radiolarian published works on the Mariquita Chert Formation and the results of this study suggest that this formation ranges in age from Middle Jurassic to early Late Cretaceous (late Aalenian to early?Cmiddle Cenomanian) and also reveal a possible feature of the Bermeja Complex, which is the younging of radiolarian cherts from north to south, evoking a polarity of accretion. On the basis of a currently exhaustive inventory of the radiolarite facies s.s. on the Caribbean Plate, a re-examination of the regional distribution of Middle Jurassic sediments associated with oceanic crust, and a paleoceanographic argumentation on the water currents, we come to the conclusion that the radiolarite and associated Mesozoic oceanic terranes of the Caribbean Plate are of Pacific origin. Eventually, a discussion on the origin of the cherts of the Mariquita Formation illustrated by Middle Jurassic to middle Cretaceous geodynamic models of the Pacific and Caribbean realms bring up the possibility that the rocks of the Bermeja Complex are remnants of two different oceans. 相似文献

Climatic instability during the late Pleistocene has been reflected in the pattern of groundwater recharge. This report summarizes palaeoclimate knowledge during the late Weichselian in Europe. During this period the majority of northern Europe was covered by thick ice sheets and permafrost, preventing aquifers from recharging. In contrast, southern Europe was generally free of these palaeoclimatic features. Palaeoclimatic information has been combined with isotope data to better understand the palaeorecharge conditions and recharge timing across the European continent. The 18O and 2H relationship shows latitudinal plus climatic influences. Radiocarbon data show that while southern European aquifers have generally been recharged continuously during the last 40,000 years, northern European aquifers typically show a recharge gap during the Last Glacial Maximum. Areas that underwent continuous recharge during the entire late Pleistocene period can also be distinguished from areas where recharge to aquifers was prevented during the Last Glacial Maximum. Finally, several examples are presented of melt-water recharge or subglacial recharge. The identification of such diversity in the groundwater palaeorecharge in Europe is of great importance for modellers developing management schemes for groundwater resources. 相似文献

The Mancha Oriental System (MOS, 7,260?km2) is one of the largest aquifers within Spain, and is encompassed by the Jucar River Basin. Over the past 30?years, socioeconomic development within the region has been largely due to intensive use of groundwater resources for irrigating crops (1,000?km2). Groundwater pumping (406 million m3/year) has provoked a steady drop in the groundwater level and a reduction of MOS discharge to the Jucar River. The study aims to characterize the river?Caquifer relationship, to determine the influence that groundwater abstraction has on the river discharge. This research has advanced a three-dimensional large-scale numerical groundwater-flow model (MODFLOW 2000) in order to spatially and temporally evaluate, quantify and predict the river?Caquifer interactions that are influenced by groundwater abstraction in MOS. It is demonstrated that although groundwater abstraction increased considerably from the early 1980s to 2000, the depletion of water stored in the aquifer was lower than might be expected. This is mainly due to aquifer recharge from the Jucar River, induced by groundwater abstraction. The area of disconnection between the river and the water table (i.e. where groundwater head is lower than the riverbed) is found to have spread 20?km downstream from its position before pumping started. 相似文献
